Samsung Galaxy Note 20’s chipset might not be that bad after all

With the Galaxy Note 20 launch just a week away, all eyes will be on what upgrades Samsung brings to the table. While the chipset might remain unchanged, there might be a silver lining. While Samsung flagship like the Note series and the S series are powered by Snapdragon chipsets in the US and European markets, they come with Exynos chipset in Asian markets such as India. It often tends to lose out on the performance front against Qualcomm Snapdragon counterparts. However, a new leak suggests some good news in this regard.

Xiaomi Mi Band 4 images offer a first glimpse of the upcoming fitness tracker

The Xiaomi Mi Band 4 is confirmed to be in development, but a new certification suggests we may see the fitness tracker in the near future.

Spotted by DroidShout, the Xiaomi Mi Band 4 has appeared on the official website of Taiwan's NCC certification agency. It also comes with the first images of the wearable too.

You can see the photos below, but they aren't high quality marketing shots. They do offer some quick glimpses of different angles of the health band for certification purposes.

The images don't teach us anything new about the tracker though. It looks remarkably similar to the Xiaomi Mi Band 3 - as has been expected - and it's likely to sport similar tech such as the heart rate tracker, which you can see in the first photo, as well as a small black and white display.

The certification listing confirms the company plans to make a separate variant of the Mi Band 4 with NFC onboard for contactless payments, but it's expected the company will only include that on a China-only model.

Previous leaks suggested the same thing, as well as the fact we'll get lower power Bluetooth 5.0 tech in the new fitness tracker.

We don't know a specific release date for the Mi Band 4 - considering a Xiaomi executive teased it back in March, we'd hope to see it by the end of the year - but a certification listing does suggest it's nearing completion so we may hear more soon.
